oops, I did it again
May. 18th, 2011 06:48 pmand went a long time without an entry. I have a habit of trying to do my LJ entry writing in short spurts at work, and work has actually been too busy for it lately. On one hand, this is a good thing, as it means I'm not bored at work these days. On the other hand, no updateyness. So today, I'm actually taking the time to sit down and write a proper entry while the rice for my dinner cooks.
But first, a question. Is tonight's hockey game an early one and over already (as of 6:37pm Pacific), or are people just getting started on acting like dumbasses really early?
Ahem. Anyways. Life's been pretty good to me lately. My house is rapidly approaching a state of pretty darn clean... at the moment it's presentable, and another week or two will see it completely organized and spotlessly clean.
My desktop computer is currently non-functional, due to having been infested with a virus. It got to the point of being so bad that all I could do was a reformat and reinstall, but at the moment I can't find my Windows 7 disk. Until find that, I can't do the reinstall part of the process. I did put Ubuntu linux on it, but apparently my video card won't work with WoW under linux, so I'm going to have to go back to Windows (or dual boot). That's part of what's got me doing all this organizing. I've been wanting to do that for a long time though, so I'm killing two birds with one stone.
My laptop is working, of course, and I finally found the power cord, so I'm able to use that (and Ian's machine when he's not home), but I'm finding myself not really wanting to spend much time on the computer lately. I've spent maybe a total of an hour logged into WoW in the past week. I'm sure I'll eventually want to get back to it more, but for now, I figure this is a good thing. Instead, I'm painting SCA charters, housework, reading, and spinning (REAL spinning, with a spinning wheel and wool, not using a stationary bike, which I have to admit pisses me the hell off that people call that spinning) while watching Game of Thrones, Glee and Big Bang Theory.
Things with Ian are excellent. He's being helpful, cleaning up after himself a LOT more than he used to (he's not perfect, but then again neither am I), and best of all, treating me with tons of respect (and adoration, which is very cute). He's respecting my need to go to SCA events and to go hang out with my friends, and in return I'm making slightly different choices because I am finding myself wanting to spend more time with him than I used to. All in all, a very big YAY.
I think my rice is finished, so I'm going to go heat up my curry and have dinner while I watch Sunday's Game of Thrones episode. I am absolutely LOVING the show, by the way. If you aren't watching it, why the heck not?
